The Be Well Coalition is proudly a recipient of the Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Support Program funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It is the nation's leading effort to mobilize communities to prevent youth substance use because local problems require local solutions.
Our Mission is fostering community partnerships to promote mental health, prevent suicide, and reduce substance misuse to ensure a healthier future for all youth and adults in Crook County.
